POS for burger and pizza spots

A burger or pizza spot has two pains no one else does: combos (almost everyone sells them and almost no POS handles them well) and complex modifiers (American or white cheese, brioche or regular bun, add bacon, no onion, extra mustard). If your POS can’t handle them in a single flow, you end up creating 200 products for what are really 10 burgers with variations.

What El Nido does for your burger or pizza spot

​

How a burger spot uses El Nido

A Friday night:

• Customer orders a combo: classic burger with bacon and American cheese (no pickles), curly fries, soda.
• The cashier builds the combo in a few taps. The POS charges the combo price, not the sum of the parts.
• The order lands on the kitchen screen with its time.
• The ticket prints with the breakdown and the suggested tip.

Real case: Taviano Pizzería in León (2 locations) has been using combos, modifiers and multi-location with El Nido since April 2026.

​

Combos as their own thing, not a sum

Many POS systems force you to create “combo 1” as a product separate from its parts. That breaks two things: if you change the burger price, the combo doesn’t update; and if you want to know how many burgers you sold, it doesn’t count the ones inside combos. El Nido treats the combo as its own entity with selectable slots. When the customer builds it, the POS deducts inventory for the burger, fries and drink, but charges the combo price. And your reports show real sales by product.

​

Measure your margin by combo

You log your expenses and ingredients (by hand or from a photo of the receipt) and El Nido shows you your live income statement: what each combo costs you, your waste, and the profit left over. That’s how you find out whether your best-selling combo is also your most profitable one.

​

A points card for your customers

A repeat customer earns digital points on their card (with Apple Wallet and Google Pay from the Pro plan). They redeem for a free combo at 10 visits or a discount on their next order.

​

Delivery

If you run delivery, you can log those orders in El Nido so they show up in your sales. We’re still expanding our delivery tooling, so if per-channel reporting matters to you, tell us what you need and we’ll walk you through what’s live today.

When you don’t need a POS for your burger spot

• You sell 10 burgers a day out of your garage.
• You have no employees.
• You don’t care about measuring margin by combo.

At that size, a notebook works. A POS starts to make sense when you have volume, frequent combos, or growth toward several locations.
